I finally got home all the logs that I set aside from a job I was on. I was able to convince one of my operators to split them into pieces I could handle to. Who says elm is hard to split? I quartered  two 28 inch across logs in about five minutes. Haha.

 

 

 

I even convinced him to load em for me. I filled the 8ft. bed twice with elm, black locust, cherry and maple.

My how things change! Feels like only a few months ago that ol' Dave was dead-set against using even a belt sander! Now he's got the most expensive log splitter I've ever seen!   :goldtooth:

The old saying goes, "Work smarter, not harder."
I don't normally cheat like that, but... I'm not against taking advantage of the situation. The boss said they had to be gone and why not right. I still need to split out staves by hand and peel bark and sapwood and seal and yada yada yada, bit all together I ended up with one 15 in. cherry, two 12 in. black locust, three 20+ in. logs of elm and two 8 in. Elm logs.  I still need to get the maple and another elm still there, but I may not I have more than I can store until I get to my farm where I keep the big stash.    :eek:    :D    

Scott, if you want to see me kick it old school, come on by and bring your wedges! There's plenty of time for traditional no. Lol

I'll try and get a video the next time. It's pretty impressive to see a log that big pop in talk in a few seconds.
